BATified2023:
peter obi will not win bro

And so? Must everybody win?

GWMI:
Igbos did not vote obJ.voting started to be transparent a little bit from 2011.Nkw from 2011 till date the Igbos have not stopped the politics of hatred in nigeria there causing unnecessary tension in our polity.

Okay. Do your worst coward

CoronaVirusRelo:
Kwankwanso would be modeling on the ballot papers!

Even his ancestors know he won’t win!

And still a minion not worthy to stop the demigod, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The one and only Presidential candidate in the 2023 election.

Ordinarily, if not for constitutional justification, Asiwaju should be automatically sworn-in as President, so INEC can save cost.

Cos theor is no statistical justification to go into an election when the winner is already glaring!

But like I earlier stated, the constitution should be fulfilled.

Why are Yoruba afraid of losing election? Allow everybody to contest. This is not yoruba politics where cowards step down for whoever is deemed powerful.

Munamoqel:
smart by half . ATIKU name is not on the ballot but PDP and umbrella.no body know LP logo up north where the votes are

Okay. You can rest now

Munamoqel:
the kwankasiya votes you are saddistitally hoping on to increase obi chance are non existing the northers are well enlighten in politics of Nigeria. In Kano there over 12 radio station all they dey is political analysis from morning still night this has educated the voters enough .even die hard kwankasiya people will not waste their vote on kwankaso ego they are not emotional like obi /IBo people they are strategic .they. Know kwankaso is not winning it clear their main Target is Kano state . Kwankwaso called obi and LP .yan awa re this mean leader of the sepretist this has damage LP beyond remain in the North

It's no longer Kwankwaso will step down for Thiefnubuu

Munamoqel:
all the politic leaders in. Benue yesterday signed and supported Atiku after meeting . They don't see any reward in obi and Igbo lead party .all the Senate members in the election is PDP logo vs broom LP logo is unknown cos the social media LP people where shouting obidents up and down against Mama and pikin which might be seen as family planning party rejected by the Islamic North .

You are not familiar with the way if politicking Obi is introducing

Munamoqel:
forgets bro in ethnic charged politic a North Man Christian or Muslim will not vote ibo or Obi .I know they are you hope In the North but they are more closer to their fellow Muslim Northern than any IBo man they wouldn't want to Miss out if PDP wins which has given the flatform to produce the like of general Agwai and co their elites live in kaduna GRA Zaria GRA and work in many companies in kano they operate their hausa churches different from yours and they see no benefits in any Igbo lead

Ewedu master

BossGerald:
Oga you're looking reality in the face and you're here shouting propaganda.

Go to BBChausa on Facebook, use Google translator and the caricature they make with tifnubu, an average hausa man prefers kwankwaso and Atiku.

Stop living in delusion, there's no vote for tinubu in the north.

Vote OBI2023

They are busy fighting Igbos. All Hausa FB pages are anti Tinubu but the cowards are hidding

Ttalk:
Why are you always searching for news to justify your candidate failure?

Should I also tell you that 80% of those contesting in LP in SW, NC and NW are being sponsored by APC.

Just dey there dey play

Stay in your brown roof and be pontificating on another person's region

ObaOfYorubaLand:
Most of you Yoruba's are not well? Why are you forcing Igbo's to vote for that useless Tinubu when there are other better Candidates?

Tinubu will never be President of Nigeria.

They think we are weak people like them. After all noise about how Buhari will deal with Igbos we are still balling. Let them continue looking for almighty powerful person to hide under for a false sense of importance

Afonjas Monarchist mentality. Your people are becoming like northerners

Obi is a goal

Stingman:
Not at all...but urban improvement in the capital city shouldn't be stopped...even US, UK have huge debt burden...What I am saying is that projects in the capital city should not be stopped because another city is coming up...Development across the state should be a continous thing...For example the state government has many estates in the city, why is taking a long time to tar the roads in the estates, simulatenously as the local community roads are tarred...? Do you know that if the estates are developed, properties would completed by private individuals, who would in turn improve the IGR of the state because of tenement rate payments to the government...See that as recurring income...The development of this estates will also improve the economy and physical environment of the capital city...This will bring more investments and businesses to the state.

With which money? Enugu was never a rich state. Sullivan achieved a lot with his debt and we commend him for that, but don't expect magic from the person that inherited the debts. secondly, Enugu state died so that Enugu city may live, now the city has to sacrifice too for the hinterlands since it already has solid infrastructure that can take it for a couple of years with good maintenance.

The only way restructuring will be taken seriously is when all ethnic nationalities demand for dissolution of Nigeria

oneeast:
Basilo, It is called Enugu state airport. Stop tagging it international. There are only 3 international airports in Nigeria- Abuja, lagos, kano, PH and recently KD.

Enugu state airport is a domestic airport. FG is not interested in it because it does not have any economic importance. The same reason they abandoned it..lol

Chinese aviation are already on site. Take a hike bro if you can't bear it.

all this wailing because we requested for picture of Chinko father chritmass village airstrip. Ok

oneeast:
Enugu state airport is not on the priority list of the FG. Even the minister of transport has not set his foot in Enugu state since he assumed office.

These are the international airports in Nigeria: Lagos, Abuja, Kano, PH, & KD.

Lol, this cry cry baby sef

Scholes007:
Good to know you now taking your formal education serious. But pls be reminded, AIIA enugu is the only international airport in SE,The second busiest airport in SE/SS and the only recognized airport by Igbos. So chill with your obiano campaign ground.

Gbam. Enugu is the FG licensed international gateway to igboland accepted by all igbos. Chinko airport is a pipedream

Stingman:
The past administration did well for the city...debts are okay, so long as the projects are there to be seen. Can you mention one big project done in the city for this past two years? Investment in the city should be a continnous thing...Big projects have been done in the Nsukka axis which is a welcome development...

So what exactly is your point? Is Nsukka not an upcoming city, is it an abomination if Enugu gets a second city? Are you comparing 8 years of high allocation with massive borrowing to two years of small revenue with heavy debt burden?

captleonerd:
yes the radical approach can include protests and rallies without disrespect for other ethnic nationalities. I listened to KANU live on radio issuing threats against Yoruba and Hausa. that is what is wrong about Hus approach

Rubbish, you expect a pat on the back when you insult igbos? by the way, insults and counter insults are irrelevant, what matters is the way to dissolve the unworkable union. If a yoruba man come out tomorrow to insult igbos but work towards dissolution of this fraud, i will never be against his agitation, but i will also insult his people back and thats all

captleonerd:
I'm not in support of killing unarmed protesters but the west can't decide our faith for us. we are a country of 200m people. the humanitarian crisis will overwhelm Africa!!!

Where did Lugard come from? Is he from Enugu, or Kano or Ibadan?

captleonerd:
through Diplomatic means not the way KANU is doing it.

You people should stop this, without kanu's radical approach nobody will call you to negotiation table. He sacrificed and refused to compromise, we should be thanking him for increasing the tempo with his non violent but very aggressive approach which has left the authorities in confusion on how to deal with him

oneeast:
The project is already ongoing and we shall show for the world to see soon.. Go and face your dilapidated airport runway and colapsing terminal building at the Enugu state airport.


[s][/s]

There is nothing like Enugu state airport, AIIA is an FG property. Airports in Nigeria built by FG or State not some Chinese Father Christmas. Meanwhile, Pictures or .......

Afonja sees APC and their anti Igbo agenda as their only hope of recovering lost ground which ordinarily they can't on a level playground

Voting for Buahari is rewarding a terrorist

Kazim88:
Wike is a coded IPOB member.

Lol, anything is possible with this politicians, but he was the first to order shooting of protesters though

Stingman:
The governor is trying in the local areas....There has been no substantial mega project in Enugu capital city...Can you post any if there is? Poultry farm is good, but that is obviously not what people are expecting....A lot needs to be done....There should be budget for urban renewal. City centre or High street should be established by government with facilities that can boost economic development...

Also, planning seems to be issue as well. For instance the new Nsukka to Enugu road should have been a dual carriage as most people travelling to SS region from the north and Abuja pass through that road. Traffic build up has started already...I have travelled through the road...From NCC to Abakpa road junction doesn't look good. Sections of the segment is already going bad...The segement has no gutter...

The last administration did that and other aspects of development suffered with huge debt incurred, right now, maintenance will go on with other aspects of development being touched within the limits of whatever remains after debt servicing. Economic empowerment like the one above should not be considered a "push over", Enugu city is not lagging behind in urban renewal.
Secondly, the road you talked about was built by Sullivan, i expect this governor continue the dualization from Opi to Abakpa before the end of his tenure

MXrap:
Hehehehe..but they are already on site. Would you now kill yourself out of envy and frustration?

[s][/s]

THis is Nairaland, In nairaland it is "Pictures or it didn't happen". The best we expect is for some scratching of the bush for election purposes

MXrap:
Basilo, oga eme gi n anya ka film. The Chinese aviation are already on-site developing Anambra aerotropolis while you are dying of heart attack. Very soon you shall start seeing pictures of the ongoing works, envious lots. Btw, has the abandoned Enugu state dilapidated airport runway and collapsing shades been fixed? Hehehehehe

[s][/s]

China is not father Christmas simple, the rest of your rants are meaningless

Abagworo:
Chino your State has no Airport and is still begging Chinese to come help them build. It's better you keep quiet and enjoy your backwardness.

Hehehe, them think say China na father Christmas

lacasera14:
if you bigoted e-igbos think I'll argue with you on this again, I'm sorry I won't grant that satisfaction. I know what's obtainable even in the international community, I've been to both cities, I have my convictions, rant all you can, nothing will change that. I recognize you from my other thread, you're a blinded sentimental bigot. pls clear.

There is more money (lazy oil money) flowing in PH, that is all, Enugu beat PH in all aspects of modernity, PH is slum with few skyscrapers. Ikwerres are not even helping matters, they can't provide decent rentable properties, littering everywhere with shanties. The anti Igbo stance of PH is its greatest undoing. Lagos has been governed by people from Osun, Ekiti and now Ondo, but PH goes to local touts who dwell on anti igbo rhetorics to derive a false sense of importance, Imagine if someone like Sullivan governed Rivers with its huge resources, PH should be thrashing Lagos on all fronts. THe last development in PH happened under Micheal Okpara. Why are you all feeling hurt about the comparison? we do a lot of comparison in the East, that way, those who are backward will wake up, even Abakaliki is putting up as strong "fight" due to the comparisons

Ugwuanyi wants Enugu mining fields re-awarded to state govt

Governor Ifeanyi Ug­wuanyi of Enugu State has appealed to the Federal Government to consider revoking all the dormant licences or leases of the mining fields in the state and re-award them to the state government.
Ugwuanyi said that the state government has the capacity and glut of inves­tors who are eager to com­mence mining operations in the state.
He spoke when the Min­ister of Mines and Steels Development, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the Minister for State, Hon. Bawa Bwari Abubakar, and other top officials of the ministry visited the Government House, Enugu.
The minister and his team were in Enugu State on an inspection tour of mining sites as well as to interact with mining stakeholders in the state, with a view to revitalising the solid mineral sector in line with the diversifica­tion policy of the govern­ment.
Ugwuanyi, while appre­ciating the Federal Gov­ernment’s initiatives on reviving the solid mineral sector, frowned at the un­pleasant situation in the mining industry in the state, basically caused by “the nonchalant and unco­operative attitude of own­ers of mining leases and li­cences for solid minerals in Enugu State”, who he said “are virtually unknown to the state government”.
He disclosed that Enugu State is richly endowed with solid mineral resourc­es such as coal, limestone, sandstone, lead, zinc and gas, regretting that despite these endowments, the state has paradoxically gained so little from their existence, especially after the collapse and eventual winding up of the Nigeria Coal Corporation.
“Your Excellency, I am sure you are aware that, apart from coal, Enugu State is endowed with other minerals such as limestone, sandstone, lead and zinc and gas. It must however interest you to know that mining leases or licenses for most of these minerals-covering almost every part of Enu­gu State-were awarded and have been held for years by companies that have shown little or no interest whatsoever in ex­ploiting or extracting the minerals.
“We are compelled to describe them as ghost miners because not only are they not doing any­thing at all, they are un­known to the State Gov­ernment and have not been seen anywhere near the mine fields”, GovernorUg­wuanyi lamented.
http://www.authorityngr.com/2017/04/Ugwuanyi-wants-Enugu-mining-fields-re-awarded-to-state-govt/

for the news above regarding coal, it must be noted that Enugu will only benefit through taxation on coal mining not on the power generated since the South Africans will transmit for sharing and sell to DISCOS, that how it is for now, until it changes. Secondly, Ugwuanyi tasked Fayemi to revoke license granted to clueless Nigerian companies for coal mining in Enugu or to return the power to award it to the states. THe structure of Nigeria at the moment makes impossible for the state to award mining license so the best bet if for states to get involved in other to influence the selection of competent firm.
